But if you own the original copy, is it still illegal to have the Ultima ed.?

General Discussion / Cloud, Zack and Sephiroth (major spoilers)
« on: 2004-08-14 14:05:20 »
Well, i'm (trying to, see my posts regarding crashes) play it again. I just had another crash with the movie revealing the weapons, so i'm not that far yet. What was said earlier about the inn in Nibelheim having one bed short and Cloud sleeping at home never even cross my mind 
. I like discussing about it, because i'm still a little confused about the complete storyline. There's one thing that couldn't be right in the game. That's the ending movie. You see Red XIII with pups... I thought he supposed to be the last of his kind?

General Discussion / Cloud, Zack and Sephiroth (major spoilers)
« on: 2004-08-14 11:50:05 »
But as I recall, Cloud throws Sephiroth into the reactor, right? And Sephiroth ends up at the northern crater being *flushed* by the lifestream. Then the reunion starts as anticipated by Hojo, who created the Sephiroth clones. Sephiroth tries to confuse Cloud by saying he was 'constructed' by Hojo and is a failed experiment. And asks Tifa if he should show them her "real" thoughts. (question: She isn't injected with Jenova Cells, so he doesn't have control over her. How the hell would he reveal her thoughts?) Which she obviously doesn't want to share. Cloud believes Sephiroth and decides to give the black materia to Sephiroth when they encounter him in the whirlwind maze (crater).
Earlier when the party is in Gongaga and they speak to Zack's parents, Tifa acts like she knew him too. (since she was the guide to the reactor at Nibelheim) So, if 2 members knew Zack, they obviously knew he had the buster sword and Cloud didn't. Wouldn't it appear strange that they don't recognize the sword and link it to Zack?
Well, I guess I gotta take a refresh course FF7
Cuz when typing this I suddenly remembered stuff. ( I finished the game about 5 years ago... and my memory isn't that good)

Archive / 1.02 patch doesn't fix a thing?!?
« on: 2004-08-14 08:00:49 »
Simple question: There are a lot of people here who know how to program in FF7, who can render custom made characters, etc. Why not combine all those good props and start a project to make an Ultimate gamepatch for FF7? I actually don't have a say in the matter, cuz i don't know crap. But hey, it's just a suggestion! and... Who doesn't love FF7? If Square won't come to the mountain, the fans will...

Just think about it... 5 years ago it would run perfectly on my pentium 1 166 mhz with a voodoo 2 card on windows 98. And now I just encounter crash after crash and the graphics are crap. (at least worse than a few years ago)
New things aren't always better...
Anyway, IF i'm going to finish the game again, I'll probably wanna get a look into the sourcecode of the game and try to screw around a bit. It won't do miraclework but maybe I can fix something...
Maybe if the ingame movies are copied to the HDD and the game searches for them on HDD the game wouldn't crash?

Define "crappy pc". Pentium, P2, amd? clockspeed, amount of mem? Windows version? That would help i guess.
As a last resort you could buy a low budget GF4 mx card. FF7 workes fine with that...

HEY, it worked! I could have figured it out earlier but i was too lazy to think about it i guess 
I started the snowboard sequence in software mode, worked like a charm...
By the way, this is really great. A forum with FF fans who try to help each other and improve gameplay. You guys rock! Wish I could help you out, but my knowledge of programming stops @ VB6... maybe i'll try it someday.

Ok, first of all, I after installing FF7 the game played fine, except for some background textures. But after getting into the first chocobo race (just guess :z ) it crashed. So, i installed the chocobo patch AND the 1.02 patch. The chocobo races work fine now, but the graphics aren't better yet and the game crashes as soon as the snowboard sequence starts. -_-
But what DOES the 1.02 patch fix? I can't see any difference.
p.s. My sys specs: Athlon2600+, GF FX 5700TD, Asus a7n8xDeluxe, 768 DDR ram, WinXP.
If anyone could help me, i'd really appreciate it!

If so, there seems to be a problem elsewhere...

I got that problem and I dunno if it can be fixed.
- uhm, fixed it already. Sorry...
